I need to start studying for the DAT as soon as possible. This is all I have left to complete. I feel very overwhelmed and do not know where to start. Can anyone point me in the right direction to a good study schedule to follow? Thank you!
 
How long do you have to study for it and what's your background? Many people have different study guides for X length of time.
 
For starters, try Dentalworks' or Ari's schedule,

You will be fine. Once you start studying, you will eventually find momentum and confidence. (Just like most of finals that you've already taken)
Submit your app early and get that out of the way and then concentrate on the DAT. I took mine in mid Sept and was still able to get accepted this cycle along with a few interviews (post dec).
 
Thanks guys! This is my first time applying and I am panicking a bit =( I have everything else completed except the DAT. I plan on studying the majority of the Summer very hard. What time frame would you suggest? I think beginning of September would be a perfect time for me. I am just worried because I know submitting early is very important and I don't think September would be that early.
